For me, it’s the unrenameable, unmoveable, non-hidden snap directory in my home directory’s root that doesn’t even follow the naming convention of the other directories in there.

I am not dissing the phone, if I was in the market it would be a no-brainer, I am just interested in what a new phone could give me and when should I plan to switch.

As an FP4 owner, what is the point of getting an upgrade? I don’t use my smartphone beyond calls and texts and a Lemmy app and listening to music.

What can you do on a new phone that you can’t do on an old phone?

Honest question, I’m not being facetious.

I guess nobody is committing genocide with Pride flags on their arms, that’s the difference.

The FP4 is 10 years old? How long have I had mine I wonder?

Never had a case on it, dropped it quite a few times, once or twice off a tram onto the pavement.

I started to notice some very thin cracks forming around the edges of the screen, but the frame looks like I took an angle grinder to it.

I don’t plan to replace it any time soon.

Do German developers call a bug a Kafer? (I have no umlaut on my keyboard)

Well, in a commercial space, at least if you’re big enough, asking sales reps for deep tech info is the norm. They are supposed to find an engineer and get them to answer.

If you’re a big enough customer, you set the norms.

I hope we figure out treatment for this condition at some point.

More and more people are using docker to run shit

Docker is not made that way so people can get out of fixing shit that breaks constantly. The point is more to get rid of once-in-a-lifetime errors for which a reinstall or restart would be faster for anyway, but the main reason is that you get to sleep because if something fucky happens at 3AM, it’s more likely the system will just right itself.

I certainly wouldn’t call debugging a blinking container easier than just fixing shit on the server. In a container though, I can be sure the issue is fixed and it’s not just another bandaid on a growing pile that is going to explode as soon as the guy building the pile retires.

You should read up on the EU then, I think you’d like it here.

• Much less centralised than the US, member states have broader rights up to and including secession
• This indeed makes the EU less corrupt, as it is indeed harder to bribe politicians as there are more of them, see EU vs Big Tech
• The EU also has a Human Rights Charter, except it is even more unalienable than the US Constitution as it extends to non-citizens and there are courts independent from the EU who actively enforce it

It is far from perfect, but it works much better than anything else this size.

So how is 19th century imperialism different from Roman imperial expansion or Greek colonialism in antiquity for example? Or the various attempts to resurrect the Roman Empire by basically everyone? Why don’t we call Roman emperors or Alexander the Great or even Sigismund imperialists? Honest question here, I’m not a historian or anything.

People on Linux are used to things just working I guess.

In the NL there is only private health insurance, so it’s technically private sector. I pay my 120 EUR premium, and this was included so I never needed to pay at the time of care.

You can keep digging the trenches if you want. Why do you want to alienate people for the sake of it?

I just want to butt in that while the meme is stupid, most women are not awful either.

That is right, but put yourself in the shoes of that other man, and ask yourself how he would feel on seeing this meme. Contrast it with memes about “only those Black people, not the good ones”.

Exactly my point, the meme insinuates that the only way men become lonely is that they hate women, which is not true and is a harmful generalisation.

But he still is in the fourth step, and it is presumed that the first three is how he got there.

Social division pays. Social division kills.
